Nicolas Flamel gained posthumous fame as an alchemist. According to legend, he is said to have found the philosopher’s stone and attained immortality. Today, this is commonly dismissed as a fairy tale. The philologist Remy Chaveau thinks the same until he gets hold of a previously unknown diary.

The story is peppered with over a dozen puzzles which make the game more challenging and enjoyable. Take on the role of linguist Remy Chaveau and search for clues and hints. Solve tricky puzzles to reveal the secret of the mysterious diary. An exciting journey through France and into the mysterious depths of Paris awaits you!
